Norby RHB would look nice with this struggling offense. 

And had they known several guys were going to get hurt and have horrific slumps for a few months, maybe they keep him.

But alas, their team fortune teller was on vacation that week, so they didn’t know it was going to happen.

They can possibly use Kremer to the IL for someone that they plan on using for post season eligibility.

Well SG you and I went on about this earlier in the week. You liked the trade I didn't from the start. I would love to be wrong but so far early results aren't good. I'm pulling for the kid though don't get me wrong.

The guy you should be tooting your horn for is Kopech I know how much you liked him and he's been very good with the Dodgers. Would look good right about now in the O's pen

Man I hated that trade. How good would Norby's RHB look in this lineup right now the way they have been struggling for some time  now. 

You do realize that just because he is doing well in Miami does not mean he would be doing just as well if he was still will is?  Rogers was pitching very well leading up to the trade, but you’re not giving him any grace for what he was doing with the Marlins before the trade, right?

Wow you’re right I’m not a wanna be GM. I’m just a typical fan who wants my hometown team to win. 

Calling fans sheep that may trust the GM/Manager, and may have logical thought on why certain moves are being made - doesn’t mean they also don’t want their team to win also.

My apologies.  I was a bit harsh.  It’s great arguing over a team that’s winning!

Rogers sucks. He had a brief period of success but he’s still terrible, and he’s lost velocity on his fastball, which wasn’t very fast to begin with.

It was a terrible trade and will only get worse as his velocity declines

      How can you even type the letters that spell that name?  If he were to become the coach, the entire team would participate in mandatory satanic rituals that include sacrificing children and the mutilation of newborn puppies. I heard from a reliable source that him, who we should not name, once bit the head off a baby kitten nun before going to bat and then mouth kissed the umpire who gave him an automatic home run.

      That's not true in the case of Chourio whatsoever, and using him as an example actually supports the point that those of us are making that are advocating for Mayo to get more playing time - that elite prospects need to play every day to get comfortable, and their teams need to let them struggle if need be. Chourio had a .558 OPS in April in 85 at bats, and he had .542 OPS in May in 65 at bats. He struggled mightily, but the Brewers gave him regular playing time and let him play through it. The precise thing the Orioles have failed to do with Mayo, Kjerstad, Norby, Cowser, Westburg, Ortiz, and Stowers.

      By the time Rutschman had 180 PA, his   OPS was well over .700.   Ditto Cowser.   Holliday at .524 is struggling way more than those two did.  He’s also several years younger, so maybe a longer adjustment period is to be expected.   But it’s still pretty disappointing that he’s not making much progress right now, after looking a little better when his second call-up started.   I don’t consider Mayo comparable.  He hasn’t even had 40 PA yet, and his playing time has been way more sporadic than Holliday’s.  He’s had a bad start but not enough PT to wonder why he hasn’t shown improvement yet.

      Mid 80s.   The problem was that I had no idea where it was going.

      You said it many more words, but yea, baseball managers have less impact on the game than any other major sport. Baseball is a culmination of individual performances, which are largely out of a manager’s control.
